4.0 out of 5 stars
for new linux sysadmins,
By
This review is from: Red Hat Linux: Your Visual Blueprint to Open Source Operating Systems (Paperback)
Whitehead's book is well suited for a new linux sysadmin, who wants an easy introduction to her main tasks on the machine. The text is straightforward and accompanied by well chosen illustrations. The book centres on using KDE as the desktop UI, instead of Gnome. Perhaps it could also have given more equal coverage to the latter?
If you are perhaps coming from a Microsoft computer background, then the types of tasks should be familiar. Like setting up the machine with an IP address on a network. Or getting the linux OpenOffice running. {It's the analog of the Microsoft Office suite.) However, experienced linux sysadmins should avoid this book. For you, it will be redundant. |
